Weber is a federal technology executive and leader with over 30 years of experience in technology sales and engineering.

"In speaking with Cohesity Federal customers, they’re impressed with the significant operational gains and simplicity that Cohesity brings with its modern, web-scale architecture,” Weber said. “Federal customers are already spending a tremendous amount on fragmented, siloed legacy infrastructure, and with Cohesity’s consolidated solution this can help public sector customers dramatically improve their IT environments and reduce total cost of ownership.”
